I am looking for ANPR/LPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition/License Plate Recognition) SDK for android..Is there any SDK for Android?

i want to develop a license plate identification software for android , where users can scan a plate using phone camera and identify the number.

i tried some optical character recognition(OCR) engines like Tesseract, but the accuracy is so bad.

is there any method I can use but OCR ?

Check out OpenALPR (http://www.openalpr.com)

It's a C++ library that uses OpenCV and Tesseract. It should be possible to run this on Android via JNI.
